Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Möbelscharnier mit einer Montageplatte, an der ein Seitenteil angeordnet ist, und einem Scharnierteil, das über einen Traghebel und einen Führungshebel verschwenkbar an dem Seitenteil gehalten ist, wobei zur Dämpfung der Bewegung des Scharnierteils relativ zu dem Seitenteil ein Dämpfer vorgesehen ist.The present invention relates to a furniture hinge with a mounting plate on which a side part is arranged, and a hinge part which is pivotally supported via a support lever and a guide lever on the side part, wherein a damper is provided for damping the movement of the hinge part relative to the side part ,

Aus der EP 1555372 ist ein Möbelscharnier bekannt, bei dem ein Scharnierteil verschwenkbar an einem Seitenteil gelagert ist. Hierfür ist ein Traghebel und ein Führungshebel vorgesehen, die nach Art eines Parallellenkers das an einem beweglichen Möbelteil, wie einer Möbeltür befestige Scharnierteil verschwenkten. Zur Dämpfung der Bewegung ist an dem Seitenteil ein Lineardämpfer vorgesehen, der über ein Kettenglied mit einem Vorsprung an dem Führungshebel verbunden ist. Bei einem Verschwenken des Führungshebels erfolgt somit eine Dämpfung. Dabei ist die Kopplung starr ausgebildet, so dass ein begrenzter Toleranzausgleich möglich ist, insbesondere wenn eine Möbeltür ausgerichtet wird und dabei das Scharnierteil relativ zu dem Seitenteil oder einer Montageplatte verstellt wird. Zudem ist die Kopplung über die Kettenglieder vergleichsweise aufwendig und schwierig zu montieren.From the EP 1555372 a furniture hinge is known in which a hinge part is pivotally mounted on a side part. For this purpose, a support lever and a guide lever is provided, which pivoted in the manner of a parallel link on a movable furniture part, such as a furniture door fastened hinge part. To damp the movement, a linear damper is provided on the side part, which is connected via a chain link with a projection on the guide lever. When pivoting the guide lever thus takes place a damping. In this case, the coupling is rigid, so that a limited tolerance compensation is possible, especially if a furniture door is aligned while the hinge part is adjusted relative to the side part or a mounting plate. In addition, the coupling on the chain links is relatively expensive and difficult to assemble.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Möbelscharnier zu schaffen, das für einen Toleranzsausgleich flexibel ist und leicht montiert werden kann.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a furniture hinge that is flexible for tolerance compensation and can be easily assembled.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Möbelscharnier mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with a furniture hinge with the features of claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß ist an dem Seitenteil ein Hebel gelagert, der an einer Gleitfläche an dem Dämpfer anliegt und eine Kopplung zwischen dem Dämpfer einerseits und andererseits mit dem Führungshebel herstellt. Der Hebel bildet damit ein Zwischenglied, das jedoch nicht an gegenüberliegenden Enden fest mit dem Dämpfer über eine Achsverbindung gekoppelt ist, sondern lediglich an eine Gleitfläche anlegbar ist, die mit dem Dämpfer direkt oder indirekt verbunden ist. So lässt sich das Möbelscharnier auf einfache Weise montieren, da der Hebel nur an einer Achse am Seitenteil befestigt werden muss und zudem kann auch ein gewisser Toleranzausgleich erfolgen, da die Gleitfläche keine starre Verbindung darstellt.According to the invention, a lever is mounted on the side part, which rests against a sliding surface on the damper and produces a coupling between the damper on the one hand and on the other hand with the guide lever. The lever thus forms an intermediate member, which is not coupled at opposite ends fixed to the damper via an axle connection, but only to a sliding surface can be applied, with the damper directly or indirectly connected is. Thus, the furniture hinge can be mounted in a simple manner, since the lever must be attached to only one axis on the side part and also can be done a certain tolerance compensation, since the sliding surface is not a rigid connection.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist der Hebel an gegenüberliegenden Seiten frei beweglich gelagert und liegt nur an Gleit- oder Kontaktflächen an. Dann kann der Hebel unabhängig von anderen Bauteilen montiert werden und der Hebel ist nur dann wirksam, wenn die Gleit- oder Kontaktflächen den Hebel in der gewünschten Weise verschwenken.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the lever is mounted on opposite sides freely movable and is only on sliding or contact surfaces. Then, the lever can be mounted independently of other components and the lever is effective only when the sliding or contact surfaces pivot the lever in the desired manner.

Vorzugsweise liegt der Hebel an einem Vorsprung des Führungshebels an. Dabei kann der Hebel auf der zum Vorsprung gewandten Seite eine gekrümmte Kontaktfläche als Kurvenführung aufweisen, so dass bei einem Verschwenken des Möbelscharniers der Hebel gezielt auf den Dämpfer wirkt, beispielsweise nur in einem Bereich kurz vor dem Schließen des Möbelscharniers bzw. einer damit verbundenen Möbeltür. Vorzugsweise ist der Hebel so gestaltet, dass der Dämpfer nur über weniger als die Hälfte der maximalen Wegstrecke des Verschwenkweges des Scharnierteiles wirksam ist, was die Handhabung vereinfacht, so dass die Position des Scharnierteils ohne Kraft verschwenkt werden kann. Das Scharnierteil kann dabei über mindestens eine Feder in die geschlossene Position vorgespannt sein, da eine mit dem Scharnierteil verbundene Möbeltür sicher in der geschlossenen Position gehalten ist.Preferably, the lever bears against a projection of the guide lever. In this case, the lever on the side facing the projection may have a curved contact surface as a curve guide, so that upon pivoting of the furniture hinge, the lever acts specifically on the damper, for example, only in an area shortly before closing the furniture hinge or an associated furniture door. Preferably, the lever is designed so that the damper is effective only less than half of the maximum distance of the pivoting of the hinge part, which simplifies handling, so that the position of the hinge part can be pivoted without force. The hinge part can be biased into the closed position via at least one spring, since a furniture door connected to the hinge part is securely held in the closed position.

Der Dämpfer ist als Lineardämpfer ausgebildet und vorzugsweise zu dem Hebel hin durch eine Feder vorgespannt gehalten, so dass bei einem Öffnen des Scharnierteils die Feder den Dämpfer bzw. das Gehäuse des Dämpfers in eine ausgefahrene Position drückt. Die auf den Dämpfer wirkende Kraft der Feder ist geringer als eine Feder, die das Scharnierteil in die geschlossene Position vorspannt.The damper is designed as a linear damper and preferably biased towards the lever by a spring, so that upon opening of the hinge part, the spring presses the damper or the housing of the damper in an extended position. The force of the spring acting on the damper is less than a spring biasing the hinge part to the closed position.

Für eine einfache Montage kann das Seitenteil eine verschwenkbare Klappe aufweisen, an der der Dämpfer festgelegt ist. Dann kann der Dämpfer auf einfache Weise an der Klappe durch Rastmittel oder andere Befestigungselemente festgelegt werden.For a simple assembly, the side part may have a pivotable flap on which the damper is fixed. Then, the damper can be easily fixed to the flap by latching means or other fasteners.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

Ein Möbelscharnier 1 aus Metall und/oder Kunststoff umfasst eine an einem Möbelkorpus festlegbare Montageplatte 2, an der ein Seitenteil 3 fest oder verstellbar angeordnet ist. An dem Seitenteil 3 ist ein in einer Aussparung einer Möbeltür einfügbares topfförmiges Scharnierteil 4 verschwenkbar gelagert, wobei für eine Schwenkbewegung ein Traghebel 5 und ein Führungshebel 6 vorgesehen sind. Der Traghebel 5 ist am Scharnierteil 4 über eine Achse 7 und am Seitenteil 3 über eine Achse 8 angelenkt. Der Führungshebel 6 ist am Scharnierteil 4 über eine Achse 9 und am Seitenteil 3 über eine Achse 10 gelagert.A furniture hinge 1 made of metal and / or plastic comprises a fixable on a furniture body mounting plate 2, on which a side part 3 is fixed or adjustable. On the side part 3 an insertable in a recess of a furniture door cup-shaped hinge part 4 is pivotally mounted, wherein for a pivoting movement, a support lever 5 and a guide lever 6 are provided. The support lever 5 is articulated on the hinge part 4 via an axis 7 and on the side part 3 via an axis 8. The guide lever 6 is mounted on the hinge part 4 via an axis 9 and on the side part 3 via an axis 10.

An dem Führungshebel 6 ist ein zu dem Seitenteil 3 gewandter Vorsprung 11 ausgebildet, der mechanisch mit einem um eine Achse 13 drehbaren Hebel 12 koppelbar ist. Der Hebel 12 ist ebenfalls an dem Seitenteil 3 gelagert.On the guide lever 6 a facing to the side part 3 projection 11 is formed, which is mechanically coupled to a rotatable about an axis 13 lever 12. The lever 12 is also mounted on the side part 3.

Der Hebel 12 weist einen ersten Schenkel 14 auf, der auf der Seite des Vorsprunges 11 vorgesehen ist, und gegenüberliegend einen Schenkel 15 aufweist, der zu einem Dämpfer gewandt ist. An dem Schenkel 14 ist eine gekrümmte Führungsfläche 16 vorgesehen, an der der Vorsprung 11 entlang gleiten kann, um den Hebel 12 zu verschwenken.The lever 12 has a first leg 14 which is provided on the side of the projection 11, and opposite a leg 15 which faces a damper. On the leg 14, a curved guide surface 16 is provided, on which the projection 11 can slide along to pivot the lever 12.

An dem Seitenteil 3 ist ein Lineardämpfer vorgesehen, der ein Gehäuse 18 und eine verschiebbare Kolbenstange 19 aufweist. Der Dämpfer ist als Fluiddämpfer oder Gasdruckdämpfer ausgebildet. Das Gehäuse 18 des Dämpfers ist an einer verschwenkbaren Klappe 21 gehalten, an der ein Anschlag 22 ausgebildet ist. An dem Anschlag 22 liegt ein Ende der Kolbenstange 19 sowie ein Ende einer Feder 20 an, die auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite an dem Gehäuse 18 abgestützt ist. Dadurch wird das Gehäuse 18 in eine Richtung zu dem Hebel 12 vorgespannt.On the side part 3, a linear damper is provided which has a housing 18 and a displaceable piston rod 19. The damper is designed as a fluid damper or gas pressure damper. The housing 18 of the damper is held on a pivotable flap 21, on which a stop 22 is formed. On the stop 22 is located on one end of the piston rod 19 and one end of a spring 20, which is supported on the opposite side to the housing 18. Characterized the housing 18 is biased in a direction to the lever 12.

In Figur 1 ist das Möbelscharnier 1 in einer geöffneten Position gezeigt, bei der ein mit dem Scharnierteil 4 verbundenes Bauteil, wie eine Möbeltür geöffnet ist.In FIG. 1 the furniture hinge 1 is shown in an open position, in which a connected to the hinge part 4 component, such as a furniture door is opened.

In Figur 2 wurde das Scharnierteil 4 in Richtung einer geschlossenen Position verschwenkt, wobei ein Winkel α zwischen der gezeigten Position und einer Schließstellung etwa 45° beträgt. Bei der Schwenkbewegung des Scharnierteils 4 wurden auch der Traghebel 5 und der Führungshebel 6 verschwenkt, wobei der Vorsprung 11 durch das Verschwenken gegen eine Kontaktfläche 16 an dem Schenkel 14 des Hebels 12 anliegt.In FIG. 2 the hinge part 4 has been pivoted in the direction of a closed position, wherein an angle α between the position shown and a closed position is about 45 °. During the pivotal movement of the hinge part 4, the support lever 5 and the guide lever 6 have been pivoted, wherein the projection 11 abuts against the leg 14 of the lever 12 by pivoting against a contact surface 16.

Wenn das Scharnierteil 4 nun weiter in die geschlossene Position verschwenkt wird, drückt der Vorsprung 11 über die Kontaktfläche 16 den Hebel 12 gegen das Gehäuse 18 des Dämpfers, der nun zusammengedrückt wird, bis die in Figur 3 gezeigte Position erreicht ist. Das Scharnierteil 4 kann dabei über eine Feder aus der geschlossenen Position vorgespannt sein, wobei die Kraft der Feder größer ist als die Kraft der Feder 20.When the hinge part 4 is now further pivoted to the closed position, the projection 11 presses the lever 12 against the housing 18 of the damper via the contact surface 16, which is now compressed until the in FIG. 3 shown position is reached. The hinge part 4 can be biased by a spring from the closed position, wherein the force of the spring is greater than the force of the spring 20th

Beim Verschwenken des Hebels 12 gleitet auf der einen Seite der Vorsprung 11 an der Kontaktfläche 16 und der gegenüberliegenden Seite ist an dem Schenkel 15 eine Kontaktfläche 17 ausgebildet, die an einer Gleitfläche 24 an dem Gehäuse 18 des Kolbens entlang geführt ist. Dadurch wird das Gehäuse 18 lediglich linear bewegt, wobei entsprechende Führungsmittel an dem Seitenteil vorgesehen sind, und das Gehäuse 18 nur linear bewegt wird.When pivoting the lever 12 slides on one side of the projection 11 on the contact surface 16 and the opposite side of the leg 15, a contact surface 17 is formed, which is guided on a sliding surface 24 on the housing 18 of the piston along. Characterized the housing 18 is only moved linearly, with corresponding guide means are provided on the side part, and the housing 18 is moved only linearly.

Beim Öffnen des Scharnierteils 4 gleitet der Vorsprung 11 wieder über die Gleitfläche 16 an den Hebel 12, der aufgrund der Kraft der Feder 20 dann wieder verschwenkt wird, so dass das Gehäuse 18 wieder weg von dem Kolben 19 bewegt wird.When opening the hinge part 4, the projection 11 slides again over the sliding surface 16 of the lever 12, which is then pivoted again due to the force of the spring 20, so that the housing 18 is moved away from the piston 19 again.

In Figur 4 ist eine Montageposition des Möbelscharniers 1 gezeigt, bei der wie Klappe 21 in der geöffneten Position gezeigt ist. Auf diese Weise kann der Dämpfer mit dem Gehäuse 18, der Kolbenstange 19 und der Feder 20 auf einfache Weise an dem Seitenteil 3 befestigt werden. Die Klappe 21 ist dabei um eine Achse 23 verschwenkbar an dem Seitenteil 3 gelagert. Das Seitenteil 3 kann dabei über geeignete Verstellmittel relativ zu der Montagplatte 2 beweglich gehalten sein. Bei geöffneter Klappe 21 lässt sich auch besonders einfach der Hebel 12 montieren, der über eine Achse 13 an dem Seitenteil 3 festgelegt ist. Die Form des Hebels 12 kann dabei so gewählt sein, dass nur in einem gewünschten Bereich der Schwenkbewegung des Scharnierteils 4 der Dämpfer wirksam ist. Zudem kann der Hebel 12 einen gewissen Toleranzausgleich ermöglichen, wenn das Scharnierteil 4 relativ zu der Montageplatte 2 verstellt wird, wenn eine Möbeltür ausgerichtet wird.In FIG. 4 a mounting position of the furniture hinge 1 is shown, in which as flap 21 is shown in the open position. In this way, the damper with the housing 18, the piston rod 19 and the spring 20 can be easily attached to the side part 3. The flap 21 is mounted pivotably about an axis 23 on the side part 3. The side part 3 can be kept movable relative to the mounting plate 2 via suitable adjusting means. When the flap 21 is open, it is also particularly easy to mount the lever 12, which is fixed to the side part 3 via an axis 13. The shape of the lever 12 can be chosen so that only in a desired range of the pivoting movement of the hinge part 4 of the damper is effective. In addition, the lever 12 can allow a certain tolerance compensation when the hinge part 4 is adjusted relative to the mounting plate 2, when a furniture door is aligned.
